Cornelius : Parks master plan (2009)

As a strategic road map for the future, this Parks Master Plan envisions a city park system
that will provide high-quality recreational opportunities for residents and visitors during the
next decade and beyond. In addition to upgrading existing parks, the plan calls for acquiring
additional parkland and developing a system of interconnected, shared-use paths and trails to
serve a growing population. The plan offers a guide to honor the City’s past investments
through specific park upgrades, while leveraging its resources to expand the park system[.] [From the Plan]
